Football fanaticism has been known to break up families, cause domestic violence, and drive otherwise sane people to do really stupid things. Take my brother, Shemp, for example. Shemp is a rabid fan who somehow managed to hitch his marital wagon to a lovely woman who is an equally rabid fan. Talk about your mixed marriages. I don't think that "Men Are From Mars" guy put this chapter in his book.

Shemp and his wife get along as well as any married couple adidas stan smith rebajas , until their teams play each other. Then things turn ugly, Veeeery ugly. Shemp takes over the house like a Branch Davidian at a real estate auction, refusing to let his wife in until after the game, which is just fine with her. She would rather watch the game at her sister's house because her husband is, and I'm quoting her, "an obnoxious fan!"

Hmm, I didn't know there was any other kind.

It is worth noting that we Alabamians are not the only ones who go nuts over college football. Take last weekend's MichiganOhio State game, for example, which Michigan won 20-14. 120 people were ejected from the stadium for being drunk. Seven fans were ejected for disorderly conduct, six for urinating in public, four for being on the field during the game and two for possession of marijuana. One fan was also ejected for assault. Someone must have drank his beer while he was down urinating on the goal post.

When this year's Iron Bowl came to a close, the Auburn Tigers came out the winners by one very slim point. I discovered something then, watching the Auburn players celebrate and the Alabama players cry. I discovered that it really didn't matter which team I had been rooting for because in the end, I was happy and sad zapatillas adidas españa , elated and disappointed, amazed and upset.

Both teams played their hearts out and I think we should, as a state, be proud of Alabama and Auburn. It's just a damn shame that in football somebody has to lose.

And still you ask, which team was I rooting for?

None of your business.
